[node] Is hostNetwork:true mandatory?

[dntosas]

Hello team!

A quick one, is hostNetwork: true mandatory for node daemonSet? Check in here -->

aws-ebs-csi-driver/charts/aws-ebs-csi-driver/templates/node.yaml

Line 36 in 61d72fc

hostNetwork: true

We manage to run the Driver successfully without this and wonder if we miss something in here.

The reason it is there is because driver needs access to instance metadata. we are working on removing this requirement #474 by falling back to other means of getting info if instance metadata is unavailable

thanx @wongma7 makes sense :)

Now that #474 has been resolved, does the DaemonSet still require access to the hostNetwork? The YAML is currently still specifying it.
